Abstract | Introduction: Exploration of novel and effective antiplatelet strategies for the secondary prevention of ischemic stroke is utmost. Some platelet derived microparticles (PMVs) in convalescent stroke subjects were found to be predictive for the next vascular event. Patients with high-on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) had a significantly higher risk for ischemic stroke. Here, we aimed to explore associations among circulating microparticles and responsivness to antiplatelet (clopidogrel) therapy. Methods: A total of 18 patients on clopidogrel therapy due to secondary stroke prevention were rospectively recruited into this study. Twenty age-matched healthy subjects served as controls. Flow cytometric measurements of microparicles (MVs) and data analysis were performed on Beckman-Coulter FC-500 cytometer with CXP software. Besides, platelet aggregometry data were revealed. Both measurements were performed in whole blood and from the lower and upper blood fractions separated after 1-hour gravity sedimentation by the analogy with erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Results: The total number of circulating MVs, and particularly the platelet derived CD42+ and PAC-1+ were significantly higher in post-stroke patients ( Conclusions: Circulating MVs may allow to monitor the response to antiplatelet therapy in post-stroke patients. In addition, the link between platelet derived MVs and neutrophil granulocytes might become therapeutic targets in the future. |
